Siheyuan: I eat melons while doing scientific research

Chapter 1195: Change the location for finalization test

The comrade from the Air Force burst out laughing. "Then I'm afraid your missile deployment is too dense. The comrades in the north can't handle it. Besides, the missiles they have are very poor at dealing with low-altitude targets."

The S-75 was used extensively in the Jiaozhi War. Its minimum firing altitude was 450m, which was higher than the altitude of low-altitude penetration!
Seeing that this was not a solution, the comrade in charge of military exchanges with Jiaozhi said, "Well, we still have to trouble your Defense Work Committee to organize some manpower and work with the comrades in the Air Force to come up with a solution, whether it's new tactics or new equipment. In short, we still hope to solve the problem for the comrades in Jiaozhi as much as possible."

"Okay, let's get down here and organize it."

It is called an organization, but it is not really organized. The main way of discussion is to call relevant personnel.

Even if there are cars coming and going, it is a waste of time to call comrades to a meeting and go back and forth. It is not necessary to do this for this.

When Gao Zhendong learned about this over the phone, he felt very awkward, but he did not show it.

"Tell me if you have any ideas. Don't worry about whether they will work or not, just do it." The leader of the Defense Work Committee said to Gao Zhendong on the phone.

Normally, there was no need for him to call Gao Zhendong in person for such matters. It would be enough for his comrades below to call and take note of it.

However, based on his understanding of Gao Zhendong, the leader felt that it would be better for him to make the call himself. He knew that Gao Zhendong had a very clear attitude on the matter of Jiaozhi.

According to his understanding and thoughts, Gao Zhendong might not be very interested in this matter. If the loss in Haifang was one of our own, he would definitely be very upset. If there were no one of our own, it would be hard to say.

But unexpectedly, Gao Zhendong was very interested in this and his ideas were very good.

"Hmm, let me think about it. Now I remember, isn't our new fighter radar being installed on two Be-6 verification aircraft, one in the south and one in the north, for pre-final testing?"

We bought a lot of Be-6s from the Russians, so we have the conditions to conduct long-term tests on this type of aircraft directly, and we can even do it in the south and the north.

"Yes, but what does this have to do with this?" asked the leader of the Defense Work Committee.

"It's a big deal. At that time, we developed this new fighter radar mainly for two reasons. One was to solve the problem of weak performance of the previous radar, and the other was to solve the problem of the fighter radar's look-down and shoot-down function. Of course, it also had the meaning of paving the way for early warning aircraft radar. Among them, the fighter radar's look-down and shoot-down function was for this purpose."

This seemed to be the case, and the comrades who were working on radar were extremely happy at the time.

"what do you mean?"

"My idea is to have the two test aircraft use the seaplane base in Haijiao City, Tianya Island as their mission base, and as for their next test area, they will be placed in Jiaozhi. Although this radar is still undergoing finalization tests, I know that its performance will definitely be fine, and the areas that need to be improved have been almost solved, and the high-altitude tests in the north have also been completed. This radar will definitely be able to solve the problem of the American people's low-altitude penetration in the mountainous area from a high altitude. And this verification aircraft has another advantage."

This new fighter radar certainly cannot compare with that of the early warning aircraft, but compared with the existing radars of the Americans and the Russians, it is far ahead.

"Being in a high position" is a good thing in general combat environments, but in air combat, if the equipment is not good enough, being in a high position is meaningless and may even be a disadvantage.

"What's the benefit?"

"This Be-6 has a natural range, a long hovering time, and a low speed, which is perfect for cruising. In addition, if it is used in this way, it can be used without weapons and only with fuel, so the hovering time is longer, which is just right."

Gao Zhendong couldn't help laughing when he thought of the funny sight of the radar originally prepared for the Attack-5, the submandibular air intake version of the MiG-21 and other fighters being installed on the head of the Be-6.

That scene was as funny as the one he saw in his previous life, where Mr. 5 had a war-like head, and it was even uglier than that one.

But don’t worry about whether it’s ugly or not, just tell me whether it works or not.

Although due to the fixed direction, the data update of a certain area has to rely on the aircraft to circle around itself, but it is better to have it than not, and the low-speed characteristics of the Be-6 make it more suitable for this requirement.

As for the transfer of both aircraft, it was mainly due to the issue of shift changes. Anyway, since the finalization test is almost finished, these two radars are idle anyway, so it is better to transfer them to make use of their residual heat. It can also test the reliability and durability in actual combat environment, and accumulate some experience for the use of early warning aircraft.

Of course, Gao Zhendong has other purposes, otherwise he wouldn't be so concerned about this matter, but this purpose cannot be revealed for the time being.

"Well, your idea is not bad. The only problem we need to solve is to get the comrades in Beijiaozhi to agree that we can fly the plane into their airspace." The leader of the Defense Work Committee murmured.

"They will definitely agree, but I think there is still one problem to be solved, which is which paint company to use?"

The anti-aircraft artillery units can go in, so what if a plane goes in? Beijiaozhi may be very happy about it. If anything goes wrong, they can drag us down.

But painting your own paint is easy to give people a reason to criticize you. Even our air defense force went in under the name of an engineering team. It’s true that this engineering team did a lot of damage, but it also destroyed a lot of aircraft.

The leader of the Defense Work Committee was stunned: "Oh, you are the one who thinks too much." Gao Zhendong smiled and said: "There is no other way. If you don't think too much, you will suffer losses. I have two more suggestions..."

Two more suggestions?

It seems that Comrade Zhendong is acting out of character and is so concerned about this matter.

"You said."

"First, we need them to agree to let us use our own fighter jets for escort. There's nothing complicated about this. The main thing is that I don't trust their fighter jets and weapons."

"What about the second one?"

"In the mission area designated by the aircraft, we must have a high-mobility force of ours just in case. The mission of this aircraft is clear, and the mission area is not large, so there is no need to deploy too many things."

To put it bluntly, if something goes wrong, we must ensure that other parties cannot access the relevant materials. This other party includes all countries.

In fact, if it weren’t for the fact that fighter jet radars cannot see that far, Gao Zhendong would have wanted to place these two verification aircraft on the western Guangdong border.

"Well, I understand your concerns, but we are prepared for this, don't worry, I am still confident." The leader smiled. Some things have to be done, this is a responsible behavior for Citibank, as for the part related to what Gao Zhendong said, it can be regarded as a by-product.

Gao Zhendong didn't know where the Defense Work Committee's confidence came from, but since the leader said so, there must be a reason.

"By the way, if all this is accomplished, you can teach the Jiaozhi people a tactic that can alleviate the problem of their insufficient air defense capabilities to a certain extent, and make it so that the Citigroups who break through at low altitude will end up losing more than they gain." When it comes to doing bad things, Gao Zhendong is the best.

"Oh? There is such a good thing? Tell me about it."

Gao Zhendong expressed his ideas one by one on the phone, and the leader of the Defense Work Committee laughed out loud: "Interesting, using the same method against the enemy, even if there is no victory, at least it can scare people, brilliant!"
-
South Jiaozhi, Citi garrison headquarters.

The commander of the Citi garrison was frowning as he received a new piece of intelligence from home.

"Damn you, Congressman."

"What new proposal has the congressman put forward? Who is it related to?" The commanders of various military branches are most interested in this matter, and they just hope that it has nothing to do with them.

As we all know, the gentlemen in Congress always come up with some new tricks, and then the soldiers are responsible for dying for these new tricks.

"The Air Force."

“Ha~~~~~” The others felt relieved.

"What do they ask for?"

"They strictly restricted the air force's range of operations. The air force can only operate in the area north of the capital of North Jiaozhi. It is strictly forbidden to launch any form of attack north of this line, and it is also strictly forbidden for any aircraft to cross this line."

"Holy Shit! They are cowards! They are afraid of the Orientals!" the Air Force commander was furious.

"But this is a proposal that has been passed by Congress. No matter what, we must abide by it. Do you have any problem abiding by it?" For the garrison commander, winning the battle is secondary. The first priority is not to affect his own promotion trajectory. Among these, whether the laws have been violated is extremely important.

So he had to find out what the Air Force was thinking, and if it was not to his liking, he would take necessary action.

In fact, similar restrictions on movement have appeared in history. During the Rolling Thunder Operation from 65 to 68, aircraft were prohibited from entering the area 60 kilometers from the capital of North Jiaozhi, 20 kilometers from Haifang, and 60 kilometers from our border. In fact, it looks similar to the requirement this time.

There are no good men and women in the Citigroup Congress, so why they would impose such strict restrictions on the scope of attack is a question they should ask themselves.

"No problem. Most of their grain-producing areas, more than a third of their industrial areas, and the routes to reinforce Jiaozhi in the south are all south of this line. In fact, the area north of this line is not a range within which we can move freely."

"Okay, next, you just need to complete our assigned tasks. This line does not hinder our discovery of new games, right?" said the garrison commander.

"I know! It seems that I need to be better prepared and do my job better."

For the air force commander, what was originally a mission that he was forced to carry out has now become the best way to vent his dissatisfaction.
